SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Technical fault during Asian PX Platts MOC

S&P Global Platts has been made aware that an offer for a paraxylene cargo for June-delivery from Zhejiang Yisheng which was offered from $959/mt to $949/mt was not published on Petrochemical Alert 5 (PCA 5) due to a technical error.

The offer was bought by GS Caltex in the Platts Market on Close assessment process, but all the offers between $959/mt and $949/mt, including at $949/mt, were not published after 0811 GMT due to a technical fault.

The trade between GS Caltex and Zhejiang Yisheng was consummated bi-laterally but will not be fully reflected in the assessment as the offer was not available to the wider market.
